Your university experience is unique to you. This is why it’s important that you make the most of the opportunities provided to you, and get the best student experience. There are a number of clubs and associations that you can be a part of, in addition to the fun off campus and on campus activities that take place throughout the year.
Orientation Week is designed to help you get the best start you can, as you begin your journey at Curtin Dubai.
Curtin’s orientation week is held three times a year at the start of the trimester, and is a great way to help familiarize yourself with the campus. This is the perfect opportunity to meet other students, make new friends, speak with your professors, discover our social networks and more.
At Curtin, we believe in fostering creativity. This is why we have a broad range of social clubs to cater to the interests of our growing and diverse student population. Some of the fun and unique clubs we have on campus include the Tech Club and the Arabic 101 Club to name a few. Our social clubs tend to participate in various inter–university competitions across the year.
If you are still unable to find a club that interests you, then you can contact the Student Experience Team to start your own social club.
